Although I doubt any bidders were fooled, I thought this line was a bit misleading in the description:

Unblemished?  |
You're right, don't know how I missed that. I guess that proves the point even more about the premium for centering and eye appeal. The seller of a 1.5 on ebay netted more than the seller of a 3 on that auction site.
And yes I'd hardly call that card unblemished. Don't get me wrong any 52 mantle is an awesome card and congrats to the collector who won it, especially if it's another net54 member. I suppose no one will ever list a card as "rough for the grade, use this one to pad your registry." I would appreciate the honesty though and might even bid a little more if they did.
